Women from Puebla into the Nuevo New South (North Carolina): Accelerated Migration, Emerging Patterns of Female Mobility, and Precarious Work. Migr. Inter [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.3, pp.66-92.

Since the 90s the revitalized economy of the called Nuevo New South has recruited Latin immigrants at unused pace and scale; simultaneously, around neoliberal restructuration processes, emerging accelerated flows of people with an origin in Central and Southern Mexico were the response to the increased demand for cheap labor in Southeastern United States. Supported on information collected at the municipality of Pahuatlán, Puebla, as well as at the counties of Durham and Orange, North Carolina, is proposed in this article to analyze the interlocking of two female migration patterns, and the women’s unstable precarious enrollment into the restaurant and cleaning industry.

Keywords : Mexico-United States migration; female migration patterns; precarious female work; Pahuatlan Puebla; Durham and Orange North Carolina.
